Rick Sadowski: Duchene skates again, out for Game 5

Super anxious for this one. Feels like do or die tonight and I do not want to be at Xcel game 6 with Wild up 3-2.

The situation with Dutchy sucks but at least there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel.
Mitchell, on the other hand, is really starting to worry me. If he isn't even skating yet, that just can't be good.
We need both players back but the Avs are really missing all the little things Mitchell does so well.

Concussions suck.

Rick Sadowski: Duchene skates again, out for Game 5

Duchene is such a good player. Want the Avs to take this series.

Bumped into Mitchell's sister, nice girl. Is he playing well in Colorado? He seemed to lose the puck over the blueline in Toronto. Perhaps he is playing more defensively there in CO.?

He has been the idea depth guy for us, has played on every line from 1 to 4, defensively responsible, strong on the draw, and has created some nice offence when he has had to. Wish we had another one or 2 guys like him to help out our Bottom 6.

Going to be a good game tonight. Very excited! Good luck to you Avs fans. Who ever comes out of this series will be a great rep for the Central Division, or aka (Old NW Division Rivals)!

Hmm....
Balls on the table... Balls on the table?...
BILLIARDS!!! Billiards is a game that has balls on the table...
A different way to play billiards is Snooker....
Snooker... Snook... Snook is a nickname for Ryan O'Reilly...

So Roy is saying that Ryan O'Reilly is going to have a big game tonight

I saw that he has the nickname snook, do you know where that came from (His dads twitter account), its a good one.

I think he's had that nickname since he was a kid. No idea how the family came up with it

If someone could photoshop Roy's head onto Randy, that would be great

I don't know if there are special circumstances surrounding his selection, but you guys have one ofthe worst national anthem singers I've seen. What is that about?

oh he sucks, he doesn't fire up anyone with his performance. He needs to channel a little Rene Rancourt with the fist pumps, get the people going

I think he has a good voice, but he's nothing special.

our PP misses Barrie and Duchene so bad

Ahhh McL with a shorty!

stupid play by EJ trying to freeze that puck after the PK, ref wasn't going to blow it dead so try and make a play

Shorties and redirections. Holy poope.

no clear shots are going to beat these guys tonight.
But MacK is just like a bullet out of the gun when he gets speed in the neutral zone

I love Joey's tenacity on the PP.
